As I am building Anki decks and collecting words in Excel, I notice that Duolingo now has a “Words” selection on its main page that shows which words you have seen, and ranks them in terms of how well you did with them. The program then allows you to activate a “Flashcard” feature that reviews those troublesome words with you. What a great feature. Duolingo just keeps getting better and better, and I wish I had something like this when I was learning languages in school.

If you would like to create random flashcard generating cells in your Excel workbook, follow these directions:
